The gameplay offers 30-50 hours of experience primarily focused on exploring procedurally generated dungeons and customizing party equipment and skills. While the mechanics can be complex and initially punishing, players may find enjoyment in optimizing their teams, despite the presence of clunky dialogue and poorly explained mechanics. Overall, the gameplay is seen as a mixed bag, with charming art and a decent dungeon crawler loop, but significant flaws that may deter some players.
“It can provide 30-50 hours of gameplay.”
“The mechanics are quite complicated and you'll die a lot at first, but once you get the hang of it and optimize your team and equipment, it gets easy.”
“The art is charming, and the overall gameplay loop was perfectly fine for a dungeon crawler.”
“That said, the main gameplay experience revolves around exploring the procedurally generated dungeons (which aren't really memorable, but they do their job) and customizing your party's equipment and skills.”
“There are also a few things regarding translation and descriptions, like text going out of the screen, in the middle of sentences, text goes too fast sometimes, mechanics without explanation/poorly explained... etc. It doesn't seem like the developers are giving any attention to this either, so don't expect updates.”
“However, I wouldn't recommend the game to others, given the nature of the gameplay mechanics.”

The story is characterized by its humorous and meme-like quality, featuring amusing character interactions and frequent fourth wall breaks. While the plot is considered flimsy and repetitive, the comedic dialogue and wacky character dynamics provide an entertaining experience, making it the standout aspect of the game. Players can also customize their experience by adding random character portraits, though these do not influence the main story.
“The story is a meme and it's the best part of this game for me, with some '4th wall breaks' here and there. The interactions between the characters are pretty amusing, and the voice acting is just bot voices, which fit surprisingly well in the comedic sense.”
“The story and the conversations are pretty funny, though.”
“I mean, Remilia lampshades early on that the plot is flimsy.”
“Dialogue is humorous, but a lot of it gets repeated with disappointing frequency, and I really do mean 'dialogue', because there's not much of a plot to speak of so much as humorous banter.”
“You'll meet more characters along the way as the plot goes on, and the most notable thing about the game is that it is wacky in terms of how characters talk to each other and how they act.”

The graphics are generally praised for their decent animation, cute and smooth art style, and high quality compared to other fanmade Touhou games. However, some users note that the lack of interactivity detracts from the overall experience, despite the appealing character designs and visuals. Overall, while the graphics are entertaining, there are some flaws that could be improved.
“Very good characters and art style as always.”
“The graphics are cute and smooth.”
“Comparing to other fanmade Touhou games, it has the best animation and graphics - not HUD - but also the least interactivity.”

The humor in the game is primarily delivered through witty dialogues and item descriptions, which many players find amusing, though the frequent repetition can detract from the experience. While the plot is minimal, the humorous banter and cutesy art style contribute to its charm, appealing to those who enjoy lighthearted, whimsical content. However, the hit-and-miss nature of the humor may not resonate with everyone, leading to mixed reactions.
“Most of the dialogues and item descriptions are funny.”
“The story and the conversations are pretty funny, though.”
“It's more along the lines of Elminage than a hardcore standalone series - that is, it takes the basic mechanics from the early Wiz games and adapts them with some quality of life features - and adds a bunch of hit-and-miss humor and cutesy art.”

Players appreciate the grinding aspect of the game as a relaxing activity, often enjoyed alongside podcasts. With seven classes featuring diverse skills and an achievement system that rewards progress beyond traditional grinding, the game offers a satisfying and engaging experience for fans of grind-heavy gameplay, particularly those who enjoy the Touhou universe.
“There are 7 classes total, with different skills and skill trees for upgrade, and the more time someone spends farming with the ones you chose, upgraded versions of them will be available for different situations.”
“It also uses an achievement system, where you complete benchmarks as you go that reward you mechanically, so in effect you can progress your characters by means outside grinding gear and XP.”
“It's a great game to kill time and to enjoy for those who like grindy gameplay, especially if they enjoy doing it with Touhou characters.”

The game's music is generally praised for its variety and catchiness, with standout battle tracks that keep the experience lively. However, some players noted that the music can become repetitive after extended playtime, and individual preferences vary, with some only enjoying specific tracks like the intro music. Overall, the soundtrack enhances the gameplay but may wear thin over long sessions.
“The music in the game is nicely varied, with some tracks being really catchy or even awesome at times, while others are wacky and relaxed.”
“The music sounded great, and while it got a little old after about hour 40, what music wouldn't?”
“I only like the intro music, though.”
“Sounds & music:”
“The battle music that you'll be hearing a lot is fortunately great and lively enough to prevent you from getting exhausted from hearing it.”
